Bug looks awesome, and asks to be recolored for fire/ice/poison bettles. May I ask a favor? For us to be able to integrate this monster in our game, we need a den which spawns these monsters. Will you be so kind to consider creating one? It could be a simple mound.

PS: we absolutely have no graphic designers among us. What we can do is to split graphics and recoloring.

I even did the recoloring, if you wish to include them in your post, please do so, I dont require any credits as 99.99% is your work.

Fantastic, using it right now in a small project, along with your older beetle :p

Exactly what we needed :p

Yes, very glad to see another monster sprite!

Cheers Stephen, for this and other artwork which I'm using in my game.  They are really high quality stuff.

Looks very nice. Any chance to get a death sprite?

@Ablu: will this do? I think Redshrike can do alot better.

I will do a sprite definition for our game and try how it looks. But thx a lot! (animation would be also possible btw)

@cemkalyoncu: How shall we credit you in our AUTHORS file?

@Ablu: credit Redshrike, if you really would like to include me as well (I dont ask for it), just my name would be enough.

@cemkalyoncu: and what license shall i list?

Same as Redshrike's, CC-BY, CC-BY-SA, GPL2+

Alright. cool. Added it to the game. Do you plan to do a death sprite for the other 3 directions as well?

Well all death animations are single sided. I am glad that I pulled that out. But if you really need them, I am willing to give it a try.

well there are no other monster death animations. and for characters it is too hard to add all + equipment. So would be nice if we could have one for this monster. thanks a lot in advance

can the beetle going in the north direction please not look like it's going up a wall lol. Other than that it is great!

Except for its size, its exactly what I was looking for. But it seems simple scaling to 2x works perfectly fine.

@Ablu: I did the death for othersides. But north facing one turned out to be pretty bad.

Thx a lot. just tried and works fine. up facing looks a bit strange indeed. But fine for me atm. Thanks a lot!

I gotta say, all this LPC stuff looks fantastic. Good job everyone!

I have no idea how or why a mace animation made it's way into this post but I'm going to try to turn it into an LPC asset (weapon animation sheet) with a bit of elbow greese and determination! Wish me luck!

William, we already have a mace animation somewhere.

There's an oversized animation on makrohn's Universal LPC spritesheet but it looks nothing like this mace. Plus, this would probably fit in a 64x64 square decently so it wouldn't need the oversized animation. I think I'm still going to try this tomorrow. Thanks for the heads-up though.

(I'm probably going to do a terrible job like I did with the short sword and ask someone to help fix it for me after I'm done >.< worth a shot.)

I found the original layout less than useful for my purposes. I changed the tile size to 38x38 and included the death animation on the right side. I resized and slightly moved varios tiles to better looking positions, nothing new. Don't credit me, credit the author and contributors as they've asked.
